Lawyers for Ariel's mother, Chrisoula Workman, Gray and Winter made an agreement allowing Winter to stay with her sister, and for her dad, Glenn Workman, to serve as temporary guardian of Winter's estate. "I believe things are going to get better. I'm thrilled we're taking that first step," Judge Michael Levanas said in open court, according to People.

"It looks like the court is going to order therapy and counseling to help keep us together as a family," Ariel's older brother, Jimmy Workman, told reporters after the hearing. "Everything's holding off and everyone's going to counseling."

Jimmy added that Winter and Gray are not on speaking terms with him or his mother, but he remained confident that Winter would eventually return home. "My mother is a loving parent who's done everything for her children," he said. "We want our younger sister to come home with our parents."

Anita Gumm, an attorney for Winter's mother, added: "It looks like everything will work out. We're happy for the family."
